Posted Wednesday, January 08, 2014



Today we would like to introduce you to

What motivated you to start your shop?
Boredom. I am a librarian by profession, but when I stopped working to stay home with my children, I found that I had more personal time to be creative.  I have so many ideas and I just can't keep them to myself. Plus, I love the feedback I get from my customers. It makes me feel good.

What is the story behind your shop name?
I have no idea. I like the way it sounds. Ransom Letter Handmade Boutique sounds edgy and a little tough. My husband says it is because I hold customers purchases ransom until I receive payment! Ha!

What surprised you most about having your own craft / online shop?
That customers are buying my stuff! I am so flattered that my customers spend their very hard earned dollars on gift items that were once my idea, design, or creation.

What is your favourite creations from your shop?
I love to sew! I love my sewing machine. Everything in my shop that is sewn comes from my own patterns. I love sewing together various colors and textures to make one of a kind wearables, such as my wrist cuffs and headbands.

What do you find most challenging about being an Etsy seller?
The bookkeeping. If I remember correctly, I attempted Accounting 101 three times and dropped it every semester. Too many rules, I suspect. Now that I'm an Etsy seller, accounting has come back to haunt me once more.

What's your personal philosophy behind your shop / products?
To have fun. When I stop having fun playing on Etsy then I'll move on to another adventure.
